The best way to finish a challenging project is to start it. And, no, I am not being flip and facetious by saying this either. Procrastination is the chief enemy of productivity and will unremittingly stand in its way if given the chance. Never allow this to happen! Don’t just start that difficult project you’ve been putting off since roughly the same time intermittent raindrops started falling on Noah’s head and the thought of building a massive ark crept into the back of his mind, but proceed briskly into it until you surpass the threshold of no return. Only then, after you are too deep into an endeavor to sensibly turn back, can you temporarily let your guard down and allow yourself the luxury of relaxation, albeit not for too long. Rest at that juncture—but not indefinitely. Remember—you don’t have any laurels to rest upon yet; those will come at a later date!
